Hi everyone!
Been looking for a forum like this for ages, look forward to speaking to everyone!
Well my names Claire and I'm in wallasey, I have a female shih tzu and a DDB x rottie! Just wondering if there is anywhere local that does training for my ddbXrottie, he's a gentleman in the house but a menace when we are out! Thing is I don't drive so I don't want anywhere that's too far out of the area, anyone that can help please let me know!
Look forward to chatting more

Claire

Hi Claire
I'm in Liscard and don't drive either but sometimes get the train to West Kirby and Hoylake with the dogs, was thinking of going to Bidston Hill this weekend.
I am always in Central park/New Brighton with my dogs 2 GSD's and 1 GSD cross. I bet your DDB X Rottie is a big lad
as for training in the area I don't know of anywhere in Wallasey just Meols and Hoylake as far as I know, Moreton used to have a puppy training class but not sure if they do adult dogs.

Hi karen, thanks for your reply! Wow 3 dogs, I have my hands full with 2 lol, but puppydog (ddb X) is a horror when out for walks, his recall is rubbish, so he keeps to lead, he chases little dogs, he seems fine with big dogs just playful, I just want to socialise him properly, he's 2 in september, we only got him oct last year as the prev owner couldn't look after him properly! Just don't know how to get him socialised properly with other dogs!! We don't know any1 else with big dogs to start the ball rolling with him!! When he's out on walks with my shiddie he doesn't bother her, its just other small dogs he chases although if he ever caught them up I don't think hed hurt them! He loved it down the prom and on the sand but I haven't been on best of health lately spo he's only been going to the park on liscard road, which I do worry about sometimes because of the lads with the staffs! Not sure how hed be with a train he's only ever been in a car!! I'm at a loss lol

CLaire

sounds like one of mine

well you do now.

has he been neutered?

Haha, I bet I've seen u up the park before to . No he's still whole hun!! Me n the OH have been talking about getting him snipped! Opinions??

Claire

ah well I have an entire Male too so best not let them 2 meet yet.
i think after you get him snipped his attitude will change but in the meantime, i could meet you one day with Shady she is a lovable GSD X Newffie loves to play too also if you can get a long lead i mean a long long training lead
these are really good for training recall.
silver dragon on ebay do some good cheap ones

Awwwww omg half newfie <3 I loveeee newfoundlands, beautiful dogs! U lucky lady!! Yea I agree about the snip just going to have a talk with the old owner as he is family! The petshop on poulton road do the training lines for 9.99 that good?? I'd be very grateful for a meet up with a trusted big dog!! Ahhh your a start, sounds great

Shouldn't of started on this forum I'm addicted already hhehe glad I did though!

Hi, there is a great training centre in moreton, its great for socialising and behaviour training. in the summer they also do agility which is a laugh. the training is made so that both you and your dog have fun. i think it is £6 each time you go.
there is also a lovely lady called heidi who does one on one training in wallasey village at the back Mcgreals garden centre. the number for the centre in moreton i got at the vets in wallsey village and the number for Heidi i can give you if you want it. hope this helps

the longer the better.
when would be best for you to meet in the park with your pup, most days are ok for me as I don't work.

Yea same for me at the moment not working! Would you prefer pup to be on training line for the meet? Duh, never even though about looking. At the lengths lol! Will check next time I'm in petshop! Buying online can be a pain at the moment as haven't got internet at home, I'm just on my BB, and it doesn't always let you go to pay for things lol! So yea ready to set the ball rolling with pup when you are, bit nervy though haha I've been avoiding the park when there are other dogs in ahaha!

Thanks Angelina, not sure my boy would be any good at flyball though, he's quite dopey, hed maybe give agility ago tho as long as he can go around in his own pace lol

Claire

Can't seem to edit my post I've got to go to liscard today tilly, so as an icebreacker if you like you could let me know what time your walking the 3 beauties and ill meet you on my way to town! Only if you want to!

Claire

Hi sorry Claire busy day to day. I'm off to the park in 5 mins only going to take 2 tho Tilly is not great with other dogs. if you are going I will be by where the building/college was. I will keep Bailey on a lead so you prob see shady running around like a fruit loop. if I dont see you we could make proper arrangements for tomorrow x
